Hello everyone! It's my turn to host this week's challenge! I'm so excited!!

I love the color white. It's so crisp and clean. I have been really into making cards using white on white, with color only on the stamped image. This week, the challenge is just that... everything white except for the stamped image. It's really fun and not as difficult as you might think it will be.  

Since I used Happy Maya on my card, she will be on sale for 20% OFF through next Tuesday! I LOVE Happy Maya and I hope that you will add her to your collection too!




Here's what you need to do to be eligible to win the PRIZE or Top Three badge:

  1. Create a NEW card/project for the challenge that has embossing on it. You are more than welcome to combine challenges!

  2. Everyone is welcome to play, but to qualify for the Top Three badge and/or the prize your project MUST have a La-La Land Crafts stamp on it!! You are welcome to use any other stamps along with La-La Land Crafts images, such as sentiments, background, etc.

  3. Link your project to Mr. Linky below by Monday, June 21 at 11:59pm PDT (GMT-8). Be sure to link directly to the blog or gallery post featuring your entry! If you post your card on Splitcoaststampers or any other online gallery, please use BOTH keywords LLLC and LLWWC43.

Hello awesome peeps!

How was your week? Mine went fairly quickly... lots of things to do and fun times with the boys. I just wanted to take a quick moment and thank everyone who sent me birthday wishes last week and get well wishes this week. My bruises are fading and the sunburn is healing (thanks to a HUGE bottle of aloe). Don't forget the sunscreen, everyone!

Today, the Ellephantastic girls have put together a few projects using this super cute Roger with a BIG heart digi from Ellephantastic Cards & Crafts.

How cute is he?!




Helen has been working very hard in getting ready for the Ellephantastic launch.
Fabulous digis to be released JULY 3rd!

I can't wait!!

In the meantime, hop on over to the Ellephantastic Cards & Crafts to see the other projects using this image!
